OK. I think we're converging here. I forgot to add that you need to calibrate and align your magnetometer to get a heading. In other words to get a geo-referenced heading you need some sort of geo-referenced alignment procedure! I think we're on the same page with that.
I also was not specific with regards to all these errors being time-invariant, in other words, fixed wrt the sensor.
With those 2 clarifications, I think we're on the same page. Can't wait to try out all this with my magnetometer.
Cheers,
MH
